The first five lab buildings at Blue Biotechnology Park will provide 43,500 SM of the
highly flexible space required by start-up companies and individual entrepreneurs who
are at the center of the regional economic development strategy. Each building is
programmed and designed to allow for individual spaces as small as 27 SM with full
floor blocks up to 1,800 SM.

The labs can be organized in multiple configurations so that as entrepreneurs grow
and refine their business models, the facilities and systems can be readily and inex-
pensively adapted to meet the evolving business focus. The science-based commu-
nity is by its very nature a continually evolving environment where new discoveries
lead to new protocols and new branches of study. Thus, facilities can be easily modi-
fied to adjust to and support this fluid and dynamic environment where businesses
and areas of study expand and contract rapidly.
